Advice Please!

Ok so I cant decide what carseat/stroller to go with. I love both of these and they both have really great ratings. First is baby trend a really great brand and is newer so it doesnt have many colors to pick from, this comes with a jogging stroller that comes in a travel system. The handle I love on the carseat, easy to carry and its light weight. I want a jogging stroller for the just in case I start running haha..... But then again that wont be till next summer that I can really use it so its not a must have right now. Who knows if I will even use it for jogging. Im not a big fan of the colors. The green is really not this bright in real life. This comes together and is a little bit cheaper then my other one Im trying to decide from. This is 4 out of 5 stars and has great reviews.

Now the other one is.......

Chicco one of the best brand out there (so I hear) This is 5 out of 5 stars and has awesome reviews from customers. The handle is not what I want but will work. This one doesn't come in a travel system in this color. So you have to get the carseat and stroller separate. This one is a bit more expensive but worth the money from what I hear. In reviews the car seat is heavier but not by much. I love the way the Chicco stroller you can put it down with just one hand and the seat lays flat and not just recline. I want a unisex color so I can use it for future babies. Plus Im not huge on the girly stuff anyways and why buy something twice when you can use the same one multiple times. So thats why I'm going with the colors. Plus I have made a carseat canopy so it will have pink over the top anyways. So how do I pick? Any advice?

UP-date....

I finally did it.... I finally picked one..... bedding for my little stinker.

I was getting worn out trying to pick out bedding and Im not a huge pink fan so it was hard looking at all the baby girl stuff cuz it was all pink but I did it and love it. Im not doing a complete nursery so this is going to work out perfectly. its so cute and I didn't want it to be to girly but to... I guess... grown up. I also got her crib and a rocker/glider.

This is what her crib looks like (minus the boy bedding ha) its espresso brown and the glider is the same with cream fabric. 

I cant wait to put it together get the bedding up and see how it looks. (Pic to come)

So the other day my mom and I decided to go yard sale shopping to look for a dresser for the babies room cuz I didn't want to spend a but load on one. I have never had so much fun. Has anyone ever done that? I swear we must of went to 20-25 yard sales. We started at 7am and didn't get home till noon. But oh boy did we find some good deals. My mom found some stuff for her, and we found me a dresser for the babies room for $15 bucks we are going to paint it and hope it looks good. its a dresser/changing table. We also found this little shelf that sits on the ground that has 3 shelves that we are going to paint as well... Im going to put baskets on them and just put wipes and diapers in the baskets and then when she gets older she can keep her toys in the baskets. I have a lot of projects to do with my mom and little time to do them with how busy Im going to be the next few weekends. 

A few up dates on christopher.... He is loving his job, excited to become a daddy, loves taking the boat out every chance he gets, washing the cars, and loves to play with this...

The iphone 4.... He loves his electronics. Chris has a lot of babies.... the cars, his phone, MacBook, and his PS3. other then that we are just hanging out as much as we can, getting things done. 

Im still feeling great with my pregnancy seeing more side effects but thats what comes with this bundle of joy right. Its all worth it. Till next time.

The rest of the weekends are free to prepare for baby Passey to come into this wonderful world. She is due Oct. 31st hoping she comes early or a little later. I don't think its fair when people have to share the birthday with a holiday. Thats just me though Im sure some people that do have their birthdays on a holiday dont mind or hate it. I hope my baby doesn't have to share her special day. Everyone deserves their own day right? Well keep checking back for more belly pic and updates. Thank you for reading Happy 24th next week. 

My Nephews Birthday

My Nephew turned 1 on June 29. He is such a little stud and has the cutest personality. This was his gift from his mommy and daddy a little bike to ride around on. They had a little pool party for him but he just hung out with me most of the time. I kinda hog him if you wanna call it that.

We were all singing Happy Birthday to him and as you can tell he had no idea what was going on.

Then the cake came and he was ready to dig in. 

First couple of pick ups were to figure out what the heck it was and then....

Some playing around......

It finally made it to his mouth and with the help of Aunt Nikki (ME) some on the nose that he was looking at and trying to figure out how to get it off....

He looked like he was going to be sick but he sure enjoyed his cake

After a little cleaning up he was tired but was so excited for gifts. He loves the paper.

Mommy of coarse had to help wasn't sure what to do. 

He loves books. He is getting so big and I cant believe a year has already past. Time really flies. He is such a little stud and I love him to death. Happy Birthday little buddy.
